If it was socially acceptable, I would drape myself in velvet.

"GROWN MEN ARE NOT MEANT TO WALK AROUND IN PUBLIC WEARING A COLLEGE FOOTBALL JERSEY."

I take this to mean the Orson Charles jersey I bought last week SHOULD remain within the comfort and security of my home's 4 walls.

...but chances are it probably won't.

I doubt I'll put aside the red pants and polo for Saturdays in Athens, but for the Saturday beer run to Kroger(s) chances are you'll see an obscenely tall, lanky guy wearing a Georgia football jersey extremely poorly.

So in review, gentlemen...

UNACCEPTABLE.

NEVER ACCEPTABLE

...NOT IN A MILLION YEARS.

Play it safe, listen to your wife/girlfriend. Chances are they know what's best for you anyway, and as long as it doesn't interfere with The Ritual, you'll at least keep her happy...and we all know that's what matters most.

Alright guys, since it is way too obvious some womens website high-jacked my poll here is how we should handle this. If you're a guy who likes to wear a football jersey to football games chances are there isn't a straight man alive who gives a damn (as long as it's not a fake Wal-Mart jersey, then it's open season). You're a fan, show your fanhood. Chances are Mike "Big Dawg" Woods didn't get to where he is by caring what people thought.

Damn women. The try to take our childlike wonder. If it were up to us the most expensive item of clothing we would own would likely be our socks. Where do I find a Charles jersey? As I always like to push the envelope of High Fashion.
